Hi. I have a cat that this happens to a lot and one that I have never seen it!
The vet was concerned about Missy's 3rd eyelid even though she seemed fine. To cut a long story short I discovered she had tapeworms (yuk). After treatment she started putting on weight more and her eyes were fine.
Shes quite a stressy sort of cat, jumpy and scared of her own shadow and I think stress shows in her eyes too.
This is a classic reaction to something being wrong with your cat and you should see a vet to rule out anything serious. It is now necessarily anything with eyes but can be a sign of infections elsewhere. Always get you cat to the vet when this happens though.:wink2:
Took him this eve and the vet thoroughly checked him over- he said his eyes were perfect and there seemed to be nothing wrong checked his stomach temp etc and he said he must just be a very tired boy and maybe he has had a virus and coming towards the end of it. If still like it next week or progressingly gets worse this week then I have to take him back, it's so strange I wish they could just tell you what's wrong! X
